The HCG Diet - Does It Work, Or Not?

Do You Tend Believe Things That You Read In A Magazine?

Whether it's my children, friends, or my in-laws, they all know that I blog about the HCG Weight Loss Diet. That means when they have questions, concerns, or they just hear something weird about the diet, they all have a tendency to talk to me about it.

So it came as no surprise to me when my mother in law showed me an article that she had clipped out of a magazine...

A Shot Of Willpower?

This was the title of the article that she had saved for me to read. In the article they start by talking about the recent popularity of the diet and how it came about.

They then go on to give a brief description of how the diet works - However, they leave out many crucial parts.

And as they always do in these types of articles, they talk about how there is no actual proof that using the HCG Hormone will help promote weight loss. But why do they think the diet has gotten so popular... Obviously it must be working.

Well, they say it's just a strong placebo effect - Now I can see them maybe saying that with Homeopathic HCG, but with Pharmaceutical HCG it is so much more than that.

In these blind placebo studies that they do, only some of the people succeed. But out of the many people who use the HCG Diet correctly, almost all of them succeed in losing a ton of weight. To me, that is irrefutable evidence that the diet works.

This article also quotes one Dr. Katz as saying "You will part both with money and pounds, but you may also part with your life" in reference to the HCG Weight Loss Plan.

How come I have never heard of anyone dying from using the HCG Diet?

In fact, I hear of people losing weight, becoming healthier and lowering their risk of a premature death - To me, these are all positive things, not proof that the diet is dangerous.

So I say, don't believe everything that you read. Because if you ask me, actions speak louder than words - Especially if those words are coming from people who have never even used the diet.


Do you think the HCG Diet is dangerous? 

As always I would love to hear what you think - So please be sure to tell me your thoughts and opinions in a comment below.

The Nature Of HCG

The more I learn about the human body and the HCG Hormone, the more it amazes me. Today I wanted to share with you the nature of HCG, or as Dr. Simeons puts it... The Nature of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin "HCG is never found in the human body except during pregnancy and in those rare cases in which a residue of placental tissue continues to grow in the womb in what is known as a chorionic epithelioma. It is never found in the male. The human type of chorionic gonadotrophin is found only during the pregnancy of women and the great apes. It is produced in enormous quantities, so that during certain phases of her pregnancy a woman may excrete as much as one million International Units per day in her urine - enough to render a million infantile rats precociously mature. Other mammals make use of a different hormone, which can be extracted from their blood serum but not from their urine. Their placenta differs in this and other respects from that of man and the grea
